Not trying to shock anybody but If defensive wins championship, the lakers is the weakest team in the last 4. In my opinion, the spurs will handle the lakers in 6. All the other 3 teams can hold their opponent under 90 pts/game. Spurs, Boston and Detroit are not Denver nor inconsistent Utah. Detroit wins everything.

The Lakers are not the weakest in the final 4... however they are not beating the Spurs.
Why?
The San Antonio Spurs match up EXTREMELY well against the Lakers. The Lakers were able to beat Utah because #1 the Jazz have no center... and #2 Kobe Bryant was a very big match up problem for them.
The Spurs have Tim Duncan to somewhat neutralize Gasol... and the best defender in the NBA in Bruce Bowen who happens to match up perfectly with Kobe Bryant. The problem for the Lakers is going to come in Manu Ginobli and Tony Parker. Tony Parker has a huge advantage at point guard over Fisher (although Fisher is a good veteran point guard) and Ginobli is a tough guard for anyone. The Spurs also have firepower on the bench in Finely, Udoka, Oberto... and even Robert Horry delievered some fatal blows to NO. The Lakers are probably better than both teams left in the East... but I don't see them getting past the Spurs.

Rested Lakers win Series in 6 or 7. Lakers have Home Court.
If Jannero Pargo can score at will, I dont see any problems for the lakers.
You guys really thought NO was good. You got David West who shoots jumpers all day. Seems lucky that he will always make those. 19 foot assassin.
Lakers have something NO didn't. Someone who can drive thats not 6 feet tall named CP3
Lamar can slash, Kobe can do whatever. Farmar is a defensive rat and will play his heart out. Pau can shoot and drive to the hoop and is so much better than tyson chandler.
This is a GREAT series and Im happy Spurs won, otherwise NO would have gotten wooped. Chris Paul can only do so much as a little PG.

Didnt it take 7 to beat NO?

Lakers only just beat a DAMN GOOD UTAH JAZZ TEAM (also the nba home team) in 6 games and closed it out salt lake also.
Lakers have what it takes, they can play up tempo style or half court also. Just because their opp scoring avg per game isn't as low as the other 3 teams doesn't mean SHIT. those other 3 teams dont avg that many pts either themselves. Lakers have proven they can win high and low scoring games and can adapt to many styles of play.
You have the damn MVP and godlike bball player on your team, you can't be the 4th best team out of the final 4. Come on dude. If you have a single superstar that can take over WHENEVER he wants to AND knows how to facilitate and distribute, then there's no way you are the worst team left. You my friend, are a jabroni.
